The Throttle Dogs

In this episode... we lose Shadow Dog.  Apparently, since we don't advertise yet, we didn't generate any income to invest in some equipment for one of our Throttle Doggies.  So Doc Dog and Race Dog carried the torch to talk about our favorite brand... Porsches!  Specifically why insurance may be super high on the Dakar.  Why GT3RS may not be able to be specified in PTS colors.  And why Doc Dog may be stalking anyone who has a Mexico Blue 992 GT3RS... to Bed Bath and Beyond... because there's so much Frunk space.  Anyways, tune in for more Porsche goodness!  

In this episode... we get heated about the misunderstandings and benefits of EVs.  So much so that Race Dog needs a special Mic setup to contain his passion, while still giving good buying advice about EVs.  Doc Dog tries to bring in the happy wife happy life argument and Erik loves Hyundai and Genesis EVs.  We delve into the Cadillac Celstiq, the Rolls Royce Spectre and the offerings from BMW - the i4 and i7.  Tune in to see what EV you should buy!  Or should you even buy one at all?   

In this episode, we dispense with the pleasantries and rip BMW a new one for it's design language... or do we?  There are clearly sides taken.  With descriptions ranging from handsome and classic to a car that only Spongebob Squarepants could love.  While we discuss the merits or demerits of BMW design, we start taking sides on the M2, M4 CSL, M5 CS, XM, iX, i7... and some other Bimmers.  

In this episode... We dive into the finer details of the new 992 911 GT3RS and contrast it with the Sport Classic.  Rich also goes into why he thinks the Tuthill 911K was the best car during Monterey Car Week.  And a bunch of quick hits on Porsche topics... Dakar 911, Super Touring and more.  And we find out that CJ hates Meissen Blue and Erik hates ducktail wings (OH THE HUMANITY!!!)

We're back!  It just took us 9 months.  But Shadow, Race and Doc Dog have banded together to give us some thoughts on what categories of cars and specific cars to buy... if or when the economy poops its pants.  We also learn that CJ doesn't like 996 911s and that Erik is not a fan of the Senna.  Finally, Rich seems to have an obsession over the South Park portrayal of Canadians...

Join us for Season 5 (or something like that) Episode 2 as Shadow Join officially joins for his first official podcast as a Throttle Dog!  For this, we tackle Evo Magazine's Car of the Year competition and whether we agree or not - particularly with the top three of Porsche 911 GT3 Touring, Lamborghini Huracan STO and the BMW M5 CS.  We also talk about the poor showing by the Ferrari SF90 Stradale.  Join us as we tackle technical podcast issues like we always do and cars!!!

Well, we've been gone for awhile.  But now we're back!  With so much to catch up on, we dropped a bomb podcast.. 2 hours plus!  We thought about breaking it up into 2, but no... we didn't... we just decided to drop it all.  We talk about so many cars, Monterey Car Week, Historic races, how CJ loves the Lambo STO and our favorite punching bag.. Teslas and more!

In this episode, we talk all about the new McLaren Artura V6 Twin Turbo hybrid.  We go deep deep deep into the details to figure out what Axial Flux is and why McLaren would name it that and not the 723.16FDC electric engine.  We completely disagree on black roof vs solid color.  And we talk about competitors to the Artura.  

In this episode, CJ and I talk all about the new 2022 Porsche 992 911 GT3.  We go in depth as to why it is an incredible car, despite some minor controversies.  We also discuss its track cred in light of the Nurburgring times released for the car.  We tried to debate... but both love the car too much to say anything but great things.  And.. Race Dog tries to point to his anatomy and not the cars.

In this episode... we introduce the newest member to our Throttle Dog family Erik Valdez aka Shadow Dog! Erik is an accomplished actor and race car driver who we happened to meet... suddenly in Fresno one day. He graciously waited right until the week his new show, Superman and Lois on the CW, gets released to become a member of our family. And we are so happy! We get to talk his cars, his thoughts on electric cars and how to be a good car dad. Welcome him!

In this episode... CJ and Rich debate the M3/M4 grille/buckteeth, lavish praise on the BMW M5 CS, and take on the McLaren Sabre... is it only for the Gram?

In this episode... CJ and Rich talk about the Porsche 911 992 GT3 Touring? To wing or not to wing. And the Tesla New Model S or X... will they be successful long term? Or will others catch up. Or will the YOKE kill us all?

In this episode, we debate the C8 Midengined corvette.  Race Dog is not a fan.  Doc Dog loves it.  We introduce the concept of young timer cars -  80s and 90s cars that will be valuable simply because the young timers actually have the dolla dolla bills to buy them.  Finally, we realize that the 90s and 00s hip hop stars were the precursor to social media influencers.

In this episode, we talk in detail about Race Dog’s new steed - the 2019 Ford GT Heritage Edition.  We also delve into the Top Gun 2 trailer.  How CJ can land a plane by himself… and that weird Cats trailer.

I DO HEART SURGERY THINGS.  And proceeds to explain why it is hard.  The Dogs then venture into the territory of flying cars and tech issues… AND H8 LIKE A HATER ON Tesla’s Autopilot.  It is what it is.
